Abstract
A hand-held internal therapeutic massager includes a rod having a first portion that defines a curve and a second portion that is substantially straight. The first portion of the rod is adapted to be inserted into a patient's body. A curvature of the curve defined by the first portion of the rod is sufficient to prevent the second portion of the rod from entering a patient's body. A handle is located on the second portion of the rod and a pressure applicator on the first portion of the rod is adapted to be inserted into the patient's body for engagement with a localized area of myofascial tissue. A vibratory device is disposed within the handle and is operable to generate vibrations. The vibrations generated by the vibratory device are conducted through the rod to the pressure applicator to the localized area of myofascial tissue.
